“Maybe we just met a little too earlier before. I thought we still have more time in the future and that love could wait until fate would allow us to meet again. I didn’t know why you suddenly vanished. I didn’t know why you’re suddenly out of reach. You just disappeared, and so did I. We both walked on different roads hoping we will get to bury the past. All I knew back then was that we suddenly drifted apart.
And after so many years, meeting you once again after a long time comes a little too late. Suddenly, we were running out of time. We found ourselves in between wanting to pause the moment or turn back the time that we lost. We’re just right there, watching life gave us the worst cards of bad timing and shrill regrets. I clung onto my dreams so much. I dream I could hold you close and tell you I don’t want to lose you ever again. And that I would do everything to fill in the chances that we wasted. I dream we get to spend more years building the life that I have imagined, in that house we planned for us to live. with our Musyoka and Stella, the two copyrights borne of us. I dream we could have more walks at our favourite mountain spots together as we hold each other’s hand. I wish I was given a longer time to make you happy, to make you feel loved. I wish I didn’t push you away while I was hurting or that I chased you harder if that would mean staying by your side. I dream we are granted to have time to spend together because I have so many plans for us and I know that you too as well.
Maybe in another life, we will bump on each other’s path again. Maybe my heart will recognize you and will never let you go. Maybe in the next life, we will love endlessly and pain-free where I am no longer worried about when I am going to lose you, or when you will start remembering me. I wish, when we meet again someday, we’ll be happier and do the things we never did. We will be reckless, untamed and just be who we really are. Could you wait for me for a little while? Please wait for me until our time’s right. One day, I will no longer wake up hating the mornings for taking away my reality.”
